10 Jul 2024 --- The Dutch market for alternative proteins is on the brink of exponential growth, expected to exceed €10 billion (US$10.8 billion) by 2030, says Foodvalley and Invest-NL’s recent report. However, the sector faces scaling hurdles due to limited access to facilities, high operational costs, complex regulations and funding shortages. The report, titled “Enhancing the Ecosystem for Alternative Protein Innovation: Strategies for Scaling Success,” recommends national collaboration, targeted infrastructure and innovative financing models to bolster the Netherlands’ food innovation efforts.
